"Okay, it's decided. As long as your uncle is with me, you can rest assured and wait for our return in the capital."
Chunfeng Wenyan looked at Baili Lingfeng, then nodded heavily and gave instructions to Yun Jin beside him.
"Mother, why don't you just go with me?" Baili Yunjin frowned deeply and said still worried.
"Jin'er, no, a country cannot live without a king for a day. Now that you have just ascended to the throne, the power of the government is strong and stable. There must be no more changes. Just listen to your mother. Your father and siblings will be fine."
Baili Lingfeng once again spoke to console him, saying that national affairs must always be prioritized first. This is the difficulty of being in a high position.
Baili Yunjin stopped talking, and only ordered people to call Lan Yi into the palace, and ordered people to prepare all the equipment needed for the journey.
The moment he watched his mother and uncle leave, Baili Yunjin felt unprecedentedly depressed.
Although he is the most powerful person in the world, he is also the most helpless person in the world.
Who can understand the guilt and helplessness you feel when you know your parents and relatives are in danger, but you can't save them yourself.
Looking up at the bright moon in the sky, Baili Yunjin prayed silently in his heart, hoping that his parents, siblings, would return safely as soon as possible.
After the war ended, the entire court seemed to have returned to its previous prosperity, but no one could understand the loneliness in the palace.
The carriage that Chunfeng was riding in was traveling fast, but Chunfeng who was sitting in the car was still urging his men.
"Hurry, faster!"
"Yes, Princess!"
The guard driving the carriage received the order, raised his riding whip and swung it hard on the horse's back.
The horse was in pain and galloped away, leaving behind a cloud of smoke and dust.
The carriages and horses ran all the way and did not stop until they reached Bingzhou City in Beidi.
For seven days and seven nights, without rest, the journey of half a month was shortened abruptly, and dozens of horses died on the road.
When they arrived at Bingzhou, all the guards, including Baili Lingfeng, were exhausted.
Only Chunfeng got out of the car hurriedly with eyes shining.
The reason why they stopped at Bingzhou was that Xuan Yi was already waiting here with the imprisoned leader of the Xiongnu tribe.
"Master!" The sound of carriages and horses sounded outside the door, and Xuan stepped out of the door quickly to greet him.
Seeing Chunfeng stepping out of the carriage, he quickly stepped forward and said respectfully.
"Where are people being held?"
Almost without thinking, Chunfeng went straight to the topic.
Now she just wants to see that person as soon as possible and get the results of the interrogation, even if there is a trace of clues.
"Master has been running all the way, so let's take a short rest before interrogating again!"
Xuan Yi looked at the obviously tired look on his master's face and couldn't help but persuade him.
"No need, where is he? Take me there!" Chunfeng ordered in a tone that left no room for rejection.
Xuan Yi could only helplessly take his master to the underground secret room where he was imprisoned.
"Master, this is what is locked inside!" Xuan Yi led Chunfeng to a separate cell underground and pointed at a person whose appearance was blurred to the point of being unclear.
"This man has a very tough mouth. His subordinates tried all kinds of methods to stop him from spitting out his words."
Xuan Yi lowered his head in shame.
"Well, I'll leave this place to you. You can go out first!" Chunfeng calmly waved his hand, signaling Xuan Yi to go out first.
"Yes, Master!" Xuan Yi turned around and looked at the person who was chained inside again. After confirming that the other person no longer had the ability to attack, he nodded and exited, but he just stood quietly at the entrance and waited, in case In case something unexpected happens.
"Tell me where did the weapons you have come from and who gave them to you?"
After Xuan Yi left, Chunfeng took two steps forward, lowered his head and asked.
However, the first sentence he spoke was not to interrogate the whereabouts of the prince or the crown prince as Xuan Yi had expected, but to ask about the weapons used in the war. Xuan Yi was slightly surprised.
"Haha, it turns out you are the famous Princess Yao, hahaha, you are indeed a rare beauty. Even though your child is so old, you are still so beautiful!"
The man who originally lowered his head and pretended to be dead, when he heard Chunfeng's question, he knew who it was, and he actually raised his head and smiled frivolously at Chunfeng.
"answer my question!"
Faced with that person's frivolous behavior, Chunfeng maintained a detached calmness and only replied coldly.
"Haha, why should I tell you? Can I still live if I tell you?" The man continued to sneer, blood dripping from the corners of his mouth.
His bruised and swollen face had been severely distorted and distorted, and his expression made people sick to the point of vomiting just by looking at him.
"Do you want to live?" Chunfeng raised his eyebrows and asked coldly, but before waiting for the other party's answer, he said to himself: "Since you want to live, then I will help you, but the price of living depends on You can't bear it anymore!"
As he spoke, the golden needle flashed in Chunfeng's hand, and he looked at the man with an indifferent look. He raised and lowered the needle as fast as lightning, and the golden needle in his hand had been accurately inserted into the back of the man's head.
The person who was still feeling proud was stunned for a moment. Just a moment later, the pain hit his whole body.
The man screamed: "Ah, bitch, what did you do to me?"
The man who was chained was rolling on the floor in pain. He originally thought that all physical pain was nothing, but to him as a man, it was nothing at all.
Washing, whipping, and branding are just a piece of cake for him.
But the pain now made him feel that life was worse than death. It was worse than any torture.
There seemed to be something tearing in his mind, as if it was tearing his head in half. It was so painful that the delicate and beautiful woman in front of him was deformed.
"Ah~ It hurts~ Damn it..." The man roared crazily. The sound was so miserable that Xuan Yi, who was hiding at the door, couldn't help but shrink his neck.
"How about it? Are you willing to say it now? How about living like this every day? Isn't it interesting?"
Chunfeng's eyes burst out with a fierce light, looking at the man on the ground as cold as a murderous god.
"No, no... no, I... I said!" The man held his head and was sweating profusely in pain.
"Okay, you'd better tell me clearly once, otherwise I can't guarantee how long this pain will stay with you."
Chunfeng nodded with satisfaction, his eyes still cold as he spoke.
"Those weapons were... given to me by a man in black robes. He claimed to be some kind of Holy Envoy of the Witch Clan, and he also said he would help me accomplish my great cause... "
The man had a look of regret when he talked about it. If he hadn't listened to that man's instigation, how could he be in this situation now.
"The Holy Envoy of the Witch Clan? Are you sure?" Chunfeng raised his eyebrows and asked again.
"Ah~ I, everything I said is true. He, he also told me that if a woman asks me about the origin of my things in the future, that person must be Princess Yao."
The man held his head in pain and choked every word.
"The man in black robe... the Holy Envoy of the Witch Clan!" Chunfeng muttered silently in his heart, and an idea in his heart was confirmed!
"I... I told you, you can, let me go!"
The man on the ground said tremblingly.
"Hmph, I can let you go, but you have to bear this pain for the rest of your life, but I don't mind letting others give you a good time."
Chunfeng's cold tone made people feel strange. Xuan Yi had never seen such a master before.
I knew in my heart that those people were stepping on the princess's bottom line this time.
"I beg you, give me pleasure, ah." The man seemed not to have expected that the beauty in front of him would be so cruel. After being obviously stunned, he knelt on the ground and begged.
Chunfeng didn't say anything but walked out of the dungeon gracefully, leaving the man alone who was still wailing.
"Master, that person was recruited? What method did you use?" As soon as the spring breeze came out, Xuan stepped forward and asked.
"It's very simple. It's just a golden needle. The clues are already there. Tell the brothers to pack up and prepare to leave for Moran."
The expression on Chunfeng's face was condensed, without any change, and he said calmly.
"Yes!" Xuan Yi immediately stopped his gossipy expression and said solemnly.
In fact, Chunfeng only used her years of experience in practicing medicine. After more than ten years of medical research, Chunfeng has mastered the functions of all acupuncture points on the human body.
She had just inserted the golden needle into the acupuncture point, activating all the pain-sensing nerves in the man's body, amplifying the pain a thousand times, so naturally no one could bear it.
That night, we only spent one night repairing in Bingzhou, and the spring breeze took us on the road again.
Baili Lingfeng followed the carriage, and he felt intuitively that the fifth sister-in-law was just like the fifth brother, inhuman, and too tormenting.
As he sat on the horse, it felt like his legs were no longer his own.
Although everyone felt that the cruelty of the princess was simply unacceptable, no one complained.
No one even asked why he suddenly diverted to Moran.
But Xuan Yi and Baili Lingfeng knew it in their hearts.
The Xiongnu tribe had been going strong all the way, but after the Yuan'er siblings and King Yao disappeared one after another, they suffered a disastrous defeat.
The reason is that there is no support from the so-called holy envoy. Obviously, this is a conspiracy against King Yao, Princess Yao and others, and those Xiongnu tribes were used as spearmen because of their own selfish desires.
The further we walked toward the southwest, the drier we felt. Sometimes, the wind and sand were so strong that it was hard to keep our eyes open.
The progress of the journey had to be slowed down, and the horses were so tired that they became paralyzed.
Chunfeng got out of the car, looked at the wheels stuck in the wind and sand, and frowned.
"Abandon the cart and replace the horse with a camel at the next stronghold."
Chunfeng still has a basic understanding of traveling in the desert.
It's definitely not a good decision to stay longer in such a big sandstorm.
"Everyone, speed up. It's getting dark soon. Get to the next stop as soon as possible."
Xuan Yi accepted the order and raised his voice towards Jingwei who was following behind.
Finally before dark, the group arrived at a small town called Moon Bay and settled down.
the other side...
In the same closed and bright secret room, a charming and handsome man lay on the bed, his eyes closed, motionless...
